Zoo Lights, NinjaBread, Wish Lists

We made it back to the Point Defiance Zoo Lights on what was supposed to be a dry evening...nope. I'm glad we layered well enough to stay dry; at least it doesn't get very cold here.

We found the shark tank! The aquarium is always a favorite at this zoo
Brock has been asking all year if he could ride the camel now that he's old enough. When we went to the zoo earlier this summer, the camels weren't there. Being able to finally get his camel ride made him one happy boy!
The boys could hardly wait to write their Christmas lists so their elf could take it to Santa and leave a candy cane in place of the list. We let Troy do his list by himself (magic kit, jet pack, boxers, razor scooter, dog, power ranger, skate board, helicopter, and sled.) He gave Santa a few options to choose from!
Brock has had his mind set on a remote controlled robot. That idea was thrown out the window and replaced with a red power ranger disc gun that he has seen somewhere. Hopefully Santa can deliver!?
Cael is SO HAPPY to finally be eating cereal and downs his green beans like a champ. I've had to back off the servings slightly so his little digestive system can keep up with his appetite.
Someone is trying to be a big boy!
A coworker of Jer's gave the boys a NinjaBread Man kit. The boys have been asking almost daily for the past few weeks to make their Ninjas. We've had lots of delicious goodies around the house and finally had a good day to make these so we could eat them up (without feeling too guilty about it!)



The boys have also been having fun finding our Elf on the Shelf and his daily surprises; he has been so busy and mischievous this year that you'd almost think "Michael" gets his ideas from Pinterest or something.  December is such a fun month. I'm so glad to have my family to celebrate the Christmas season with!
